Tire & Wheel AM31985 is Not Holding Air
Question:
One of the 5 bolt patter tire is not holding air. It went down to 20 psi the day after I installed it. I brought the pressure back up to what the other has. Looked at it today ANF its down to 20 psi again. I habe not brought my boat out of the shop because Im rewiring. Any ideal where or what to look for. Thanks

There could be a number of reasons your Karrier Tire & Wheel # AM31985 is not holding air, but I'd start with the valve stem, as it may be loose. What I'd do is spray soapy water on the valve stem to see if it's bubbling to verify if it's leaking. Or you can do the same with your tire after inflating it should it not be the valve stem.
